Question

Problem 10.11 Part A Consider a table that measures 1.3 m × 2.1 m The atmospheric pressure is 1.0 × 105 N/m2 Determine the magnitude of the total force of the atmosphere acting on the top of the table. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units Ft = Value Units Submit My Answers Give Up Part B Determine the magnitude of the total force acting upward on the underside of the table Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. FValue Units Submit My Answers Give Up Provide Feedback Continue

Explanation / Answer

a) P = F/A

F = PA = 1 x 10^5 Pa ( 1.3 x 2.1) = 2.73 x 10^5 N

b) since the atmospheric pressure is same on the underside of table. the same will act upward on the underside of the table
